Anarchival talk with Florian Cramer
21th May, 19:00–21:30, @roodkapje_rotterdam | Free entrance 💜
What is the difference between a hoarder and an archivist?
Eccentric (an-) archives: histories of experimental, fantastic, and anarchic archives.
In this second anarchival talk we will hear from researcher & DIYer Florian Cramer.
During this talk we approach the concept of the anarchive from the viewpoint of artistic practice and collection. Archives are often seen as institutional, preserving, and focused on canonical heritage. Yet archives can also be eccentric, chaotic, and anarchic collections shaped by obsession and idiosyncratic systems.
Think of record collections, eccentric libraries, a hoarder’s apartment, or collections of subcultural production. What is the difference between a personal composition of objects, a collection, or an archive?
